Sign the Petition: End Federal Corruption

Almost everyone knows that our federal government is on a dangerous course. The unsustainable debt combined with crushing regulations on states and business is a recipe for disaster.

What is less known is that the Founders gave state legislatures the power to act as a final check on abuses of power by Washington, DC. Article V of the US Constitution authorizes the state legislatures to call a convention for proposing needed amendments to the Constitution.

Citizens for Self-Governance has launched the Convention of States Project to call an Article V convention to propose only amendments that would impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials and members of Congress.

I support this approach. I want our state to be one of the necessary 34 states to pass a resolution calling for this kind of Article V Convention. You can find a copy of the model resolution and the Handbook for Legislators and Citizens (which explains the process and answers many questions) here: http://www.conventionofstates.com/handbook_pdf

I ask that you support the Convention of States Project and consider becoming a co-sponsor of the resolution. Please respond to my request by informing the national COS team of your position, or sending them any questions you may have:

Our federal government is on a dangerous course. I believe it's time for real solutions. Please support calling a Convention of States to place fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials. (View full petition.)

The federal government is broken. Parties change, promises change, but the results stay the same.

D.C. politicians will never limit their own power or fix the mess they’ve created. We're filing resolutions in statehouses across the country to use the Founder’s solution - Article V - to call a Convention of States that can...

Stop the EPA's war on property rights.

Restore religious liberty.

Limit executive orders.

Impose term limits on Congress.

Force Congress to balance the budget.

Our nation can’t afford for you to wait. Sign the petition and ask your state legislators to support calling a Convention of States to limit the abusive power of Washington, D.C.
